Copying and pasting images between pages #

BookBildr recognizes standard keyboard shortcuts that let you copy images from any page and paste them anywhere in your book. This feature is especially handy when you’re using the same illustrations on multiple pages.

  1. To copy an image, click on it to select it and then press Ctrl+C (Windows) or Cmd+C (Mac) on your keyboard.
  2. If you want to paste the image on the same page, press Ctrl+V (Windows) or Cmd+V (Mac).
  3. If you want to paste the image on another page, browse to that page and then press Ctrl+V (Windows) or Cmd+V (Mac).
  4. The image will be pasted and you’ll be able to position it as desired.
